MOTORISTS TRAVELLING through Bridgetown yesterday morning were greeted by a different sight at the top of Wharf Road.

Two yellow road humps were put down sometime between Tuesday night and yesterday morning.

Sources at the Ministry of Transport and Works would only say the humps were in keeping with a project being undertaken by the ministry for traffic calming measures.

However, some motorists going over the humps were overheard expressing frustration at what they have described as a “nuisance”.

“Them only put these here now to mash up people car,” said one irate driver.

“What they put them down for? The road was very fine without them,” said another.

Efforts to get a comment from officials at the ministry were unsuccessful up to press time. (RA)
